After the Calamity, five years later...

It was difficult working all the time. I was placed in one of the higher legions as an Imperial Funditor (an Archer, for your information), under Livia. For years, there was minimal care for all of us- nary enough food, no education… having fun? No such thing with Garlemald. It was worse with Livia, just because she wanted the best fighters. Anyone not up to her expectations would… disappear. No word of them, their rooms emptied; it was worrying whether or not I was going to be next.There was a hushed rumor going around, about a bunch of special adventurers known as Warriors of Light taking down the Empire’s plan to recover. I was relieved. I had to meet them, to help me get out of the hell I was in. For moons, I devised a plan and kept it on me, in case the higher-ups found out.We were patrolling around Western Thanalan for the time being; there was a lot of movement going on in Vesper Bay for some reason. I moved with my own centuriae, keeping an eye near Horizon’s edge when…“Seung Ri?”I took a step forward as a Miqo’te that looked like Seung Ri rode on a rental Chocobo through the tunnel to Vesper Bay. No way… why is he all the way out here? He grew rather thin, even worked on his muscles, and had pugilist weapons on his sides. There was a confident look on his face now… it was amazing seeing him like that.One of my comrades told me to get down and pay attention. I obeyed. It was close. So close, tasting freedom and seeing my best friend before me again…
